2 pending office actions • 0 art units • 2 examiners • 0 of 2 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 1 patents granted in the last 365 days
Genix Corporation currently has 2 pending office actions in its patent portfolio. These actions are split between 2 distinct examiners, meaning each examiner is responsible for a single case. GEOFFREY S MRUK is the busiest examiner for the company, holding 1 pending office action. The data reports 0 distinct art units for these pending matters.
With only 2 pending actions and 2 examiners, the prosecution effort is distributed rather than centralized under a single individual. Practitioners must manage two separate examiner relationships simultaneously. This structure indicates that the company's current engagement with the patent office is divided into two independent tracks, each requiring a unique approach for the 1 pending action assigned to each examiner.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (50%) |
